The cost of hiring a professional to sleep train your baby can vary widely based on factors such as location, the experience and reputation of the consultant, and the type of service provided (in-person, virtual, or a combination). Here are some general price ranges for baby sleep consultants:
- Initial Consultation:
- Prices can range from $100 to $250 for an initial consultation lasting about 1-2 hours.
- Full Sleep Training Packages:
- Basic packages, which might include a consultation and a few follow-up calls or emails, typically range from $300 to $600.
- More comprehensive packages, which might include in-person support, multiple follow-up sessions, and extensive customization, can range from $800 to $2,000 or more.
- Virtual Support:
- Virtual or phone consultations and support packages can range from $150 to $500, depending on the length and frequency of the support.
- Overnight Support:
- Some consultants offer overnight support where they stay in your home to help with sleep training. This can range from $500 to $1,500 per night. Ask your providers if they accept HSA or FSA for sleep training.
Prices can be higher in major metropolitan areas or for highly sought-after consultants. It's always a good idea to compare different consultants, read reviews, and check their credentials before making a decision.
